A man walks in to a bar. He sits down, orders a drink, and asks the bartender if this is a gay bar. The bartender says yes. The man asks if there are any other gay bars in the neighborhood, the bartender says there's a lesbian bar down the street.
Sounds like the set-up of some sort of joke, doesn't it?
Unfortunately, it ain't. Because next the man walks to the pool table, pulls out a hatchet, and hits the nearest man in the face with it. He then pulls out a gun and starts shooting.
This happened last night in New Bedford, Massachussetts.
No one was killed, thankfully. The attacker escaped, but they now have a suspect.
The next time I hear some right-winger say this shit doesn't happen here in America, I'm gonna punch them. One must wonder if this sort of hate doesn't get aggravated when you've got a bunch of small-brained bigots running the country, stirring up hatred of all things gay for votes. Especially in Massachussetts where there's a constant barrage of anti-gay hatred spewed ever since gay marriage was passed. The bigots scream and rant that somehow we're ruining an insitution we've never even had access to, and this is the sort of violence that gets released because of it.
Sickening. But Bush once again had to mention gay marriage whilst giving his speech on Monday and what a deep "threat" it is since, you know, his poll numbers haven't been so hot and he needs to rally his base of hate around him again. Nevermind Medicare, which the Repubs are gutting, or the illicit war which he's bungled, the real threat is us queers and man-animal hybrids. What a fucking joke.
I don't even recognize my country under this man's leadership. He's taken everything we're supposed to stand for and bastardized it to the point of meaninglessness. We're for freedom, yet we've got vocal pro-torture leaders. We're for equality, yet there are surely "serves em right" attitudes toward this sort of horrific attack being bandied about (whatever is Pat Robertson saying this morning?). What a sick fucking joke.
